ADDY® Awards

The ADDY awards honor excellence in advertising and cultivate the highest creative standards in the industry. With 60,000 entries, the ADDY awards are the nation’s largest advertising competition.
Each fall, the competition begins at the local level of the 210 AAF member clubs. The local winners proceed to the 14 regional competitions and those winners proceed to the national finals.

Winners demonstrate the uniqueness of the ADDY Awards. Their work is significant in that it has not only received national honors, but is also recognized at the local and regional levels.

Proceeds from the ADDY awards program go back into the industry through the work of the AAF and its members in areas like education and public service advertising.
